Grateful Dead

December 9, 1981; CU Events Center, Boulder, Colorado.

Sort of an under the radar release. A very good and very fun show. Lots of things to find tucked away in there.

Love the reggae style of the fist half of second set in particular.

Was there today

Paul McCartney photos from early 60s Beatles

and

A treasure trove of psychedelic posters announcing shows, including several Grateful Dead ones

Very cool

I played that one last night - a Daves Picks. Late 77 'Dead at their best, with some biting guitar from Jerry.

11-06-76 - working through the box
Small but perfectly formed - just like the '78!

Just recently procured a July 1978 box. Nice to have all these shows. Guess I'll keep my stand alone Red Rocks.
Currently on the Omaha show. Should have just enough time to finish the show before the TN-AR game.
Y'all have a great day!

RFK Box.
Now that’s a Box that will fit on a shelf.
But the sweet spot for Box size is as many people have previously said: June 76, Spring 77, July 78.
Just the right size and just the right number of shows.

Not that I’m not hoping for Boxomoxoa this year.

Also drinking a cup of super dark roast Columbian Supremo.
Roasted the beans a week ago.

That St. Paul show was the surprise sleeper in there. And Willie's picnic at Arrowhead is a rip-roarer too for a short one. But you know which one is my favorite. Enjoy!
Cheers

Starting with something light today. The Big Chill soundtrack. Got Motown?

Onward with Love Over Gold, Dire Straits. I have a lot of cassette tapes but this is the only Denon brand tape I own, an HD6 (type ll) and it sounds amazing. Telegraph Road never sounded better. Easily rivals any Maxell or TDK that isn't metal. So glad I got a restored high end '80s tape deck again in the rack. What a difference.
